About this listen

This show is about presenting different perspectives and points of view on topics trending in our communities and families today and understanding the experiences/backstories behind those perspectives. Most people come to a feeling or belief about something, based on past experiences or first-hand knowledge. This affirming and validating information-sharing makes it ever so important for others to respectfully ask curious questions and share opposing feelings/beliefs in a way that does not cause offense or creates further divisive harm to our human relationships.
